We ran our Chippewa game at Little Wars last week.  Here are some photographs from the Friday Game. 
 
As usual we played Carnage and Glory.  Here the computer operator is pondering the insanity of the players.  The British had a minor victory in this game. 
 
 
 
The battlefield at about turn 3, from behind the British lines.  The battle was a stand up fight, with the Niagara River on one flank and the Unbroken Wilderness on the other side. 
 
Here is the Pennsylvania Militia heading into the woods to flank the British line
 
Of course the Canadians were awaiting them.  In the words of the Arrogant Worms
 "Hillbillies from Kentucky
Dressed in Green and Red
Came to invade Canada
But they returned home dead"
 
The Indians stopped them cold.  It was a shootout for about 7 turns.  Neither side went anywhere.

I will post more photos shortly.
